# Railiance Cluster
[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](LICENSE)
Opinionated Infrastructure-as-Code framework for reproducible, self-reliant systems.
Railiance is an opinionated **Infrastructure-as-Code framework**
think *Rails for Ops*: convention over configuration, reproducibility first.
This repo (`railiance-cluster`) is the **cluster runtime entry point**:
from two bare Linux servers, a Git repo, and credentials, you can rebuild
a fully automated Kubernetes-based environment.
---
## 🚀 Quick Start
1. **Clone this repo**
```bash
git clone <your-gitea-url>/railiance-cluster.git
cd railiance-cluster
```
2. **Configure Gitea access**
Edit `~/.railiance_gitea.conf` with your server URL, username, and token.
*(Never commit this file!)*
3. **Bootstrap a host**
Run the Ansible playbooks in `ansible/` to set up k3s, Helm, kubectl.
4. **Deploy baseline services**
Use `helm/` charts to roll out essential services (GitOps, monitoring, etc.).
5. **Validate**
Check the automated tests in `tests/` to confirm infra health.
